    <h3>The Fabulous Five</h3>

    just to repost at the top of the page. We are down to the:

    <h3>The Fabulous Five</h3> Fadeaway
    Rockets R’ US
    Summer Song Giver
    VesceySux
    Zac D

    I would bet Htownhero is pulling a newly registered bi-uid, which was explicitly against the rules. I wouldn't allow him back into the game, even if he begged.

    in fact, we should change our signatures from "My spelling Sux" to "Htownhero sux for cheating in his own spelling game." :p

    I don't use signatures. But you will see that it is indeed my signature, wherever you find me using one, like after NIKEstrad killed me in this thread.

    dang

    4 more kills left, codell with the one point lead on the secondary spelling award.

    I don't think red has been killed, yet, but Summer Song Giver definitely has.

    I felt obligated to make a big, long post. I should have just faded into the background like everyone else. :(

    Oh well, the pressure is off. :)

    Still Alive

    Rockets R’ US
    VesceySux
    Zac D

    I wanna see where Red officially signed up before he is added to the list. I went back through the two spelling threads and never saw where he signed up.

    Just want to make sure he is not cherry pickin'.
    ;)

    Red,

    I apologize.

    I just saw where you signed up.

    You are now officially part of the Final Four. :D

    red -- you need to make the "how's my spelling" in your sig bigger and higher up. As it is now, it is way too easy to overlook.

    HP,

    Dimsie killed Rimrocker.

    SSG was killed or committed suicide before your post.

    Your are down by 1. Time is running out.

    Do I smell another bet? :p

    In addition to misspelling, a common misuse of similar sounding words, take away from what you are trying to say.

    Common mistakes that I have seen.

    (loose) instead of (lose)
    (add) instead of (ad)
    (then) instead of (than)
    (could of ) instead of (could’ve or could have)
    (weather) instead of (whether)
    (are) instead of (our)
    (since) instead of (sense)
    (there) and (their) interchangeable
    (where) and (were) interchangeable

    Please feel free to add to the list.
